Harry Potter: Glory Bows to Me

"I remember Harry saying that on August 1st, Hagrid went to Gringotts to pick up a mysterious little package."

Draco glanced at Harry and Hagrid, who were chatting animatedly.

"Yes, I think that package contained the Philosopher's Stone. Dumbledore had Hagrid take it out and put it in Hogwarts."

Amanta whispered.

"Fortunately, they took it ahead of time, otherwise the Philosopher's Stone might have been stolen."

"Where do you think the Philosopher's Stone is?" Draco whispered.

"I don't know, but... it's definitely not a place that students can come into contact with often."

According to the original plot, Dumbledore placed the Philosopher's Stone into the Mirror of Erised after Christmas, and then moved the Mirror of Erised to the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor.

So she really didn't know where Dumbledore had hidden the Philosopher's Stone now.

"I guess, maybe the headmaster's office, or some office? Or the Forbidden Forest or even the Black Lake, or maybe Dumbledore carries it with him."

Amanta expressed her analysis.

"Amanta, do you remember at the opening banquet that Dumbledore said that students were forbidden to enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor?"

"Oh, of course I remember."

She knew that the Philosopher's Stone would really appear there in the future, but... maybe not now.

"I suspect that's the most likely place... otherwise, why would all students be banned from entering?" Draco said seriously.

"That makes sense. We can go check it out."

Amanta suddenly changed her mind.

She then thought about it.

During the Halloween party, Snape hurried to the fourth floor to check. This means that the Philosopher's Stone was probably already there, but after this farce, an additional layer of security was added.

Although she was not sure, if she didn't go and take a look, she would probably never know whether the Philosopher's Stone was there or not.

But they couldn't just go there without making any preparations.

Like the three big dogs guarding the door? Or wizard chess—God, she had never played wizard chess before!

"Draco, do you play any instrument?"

Draco looked confused by Amanta's random questions.

"Huh? Does this have anything to do with the fourth floor corridor?"

Amanta shook her head: "No, I'm just curious if Master Draco has ever learned music since he was a child?"

Draco turned his head away unnaturally, and his earlobes turned a light pink.

"Well... I don't know why you care about this, but most instruments should be playable to some extent."

Amanta nodded thoughtfully.

Other mechanisms such as breaking the vines and grabbing the key are not difficult, and the potion logic questions posed by Snape are also simple, so it seems that the only thing left is the wizard chess.

I have to find an opportunity to learn from Draco when I get back.

……

In the evening, they walked along the path back to the castle.

Amanta told Harry their findings and plans.

Harry nodded excitedly at first, then asked curiously:

"No, why would we break in there... Although I am also very curious, what I want to say is, if the Philosopher's Stone is really there, what should we do if we get it?"

Amanta spread her hands and said, "Of course I will return it to Dumbledore."

"We can't do anything to Quirrell now, so we can only start with the Philosopher's Stone. If the three of us first-year students can easily get the Philosopher's Stone - what does this mean?"

Amanta raised an eyebrow.

"If we can get them all... then the Dark Lord and Quirrell are even easier to deal with."

Draco rubbed his chin in thought.

Harry agreed, "Indeed."

They walked along the narrow path in front of Hagrid's house. It was getting darker and darker. On the other side of the path was the Forbidden Forest. It was dark and steep inside, and there were some creepy noises coming from it from time to time.

Draco gathered his robes and took a few quick steps forward.

"It's getting dark. We have to go back quickly."

"Ah."

Amanta responded.

"Amanta, I always feel like there is something in the Forbidden Forest."

Harry followed them, peering curiously into the Forbidden Forest.

"It could be a centaur or something. Anyway... there could be a lot of dangerous things in there."

As soon as Amanta finished speaking, a loud and mournful cry suddenly came from the depths of the Forbidden Forest, which was quite tragic and terrifying. Then a group of owls flew out from the sky above the Forbidden Forest.

The sound of the mournful cry was not too loud in their ears, but they could still hear it clearly as they were walking on the edge of the forbidden forest.

Draco was instantly frightened and his face turned pale.

"Come on!"

He quickly ran forward a few steps, turned around to see that Amanta and Harry had not caught up yet, and stopped to urge them.

Amanta's pace slowed down.

This mournful cry made her feel something was wrong.

The tone is mellow and soft, and the pitch is high but not sharp. What a beautiful sound.

She hadn't heard of it, but seemed to have seen it somewhere.

She soon remembered that in a book she had read last month that detailed magical animals, there was an introduction to the sound of unicorns.

She remembered that during this time, Voldemort had been drinking unicorn blood to stay alive.

With their current strength, if they rashly rushed into the Forbidden Forest, not to mention whether they could protect themselves in the Forbidden Forest, it would be almost tantamount to seeking death if they were to face Quirrell and Voldemort.

We can only ask Hagrid and other professors to deal with it first.

"I think we should inform Hagrid."

Amanta turned and ran towards Hagrid's hut.

"Ah? What announcement?"

Draco followed her reluctantly.

"That might have been the cry of a unicorn. It sounded dangerous."

"Unicorns...even if unicorns are very precious, no one can guarantee that they will not be eaten by some animal."

Amanta said solemnly: "Unicorn blood can prolong life..."

Harry's expression changed drastically: "Voldemort?"

"Probably yes."

Aman chose his words carefully.

"Oh my God, you guys go first, this matter must be notified to the professors as soon as possible!"

Harry immediately rushed towards the castle.

As he ran, he shouted, "Draco, remember to keep an eye on Amanta, don't let anything happen to her!"

Draco looked at Harry's back, then glanced at the dark Forbidden Forest beside him.

"Damn it."

Amanta had already run a long distance. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and ran forward.

Fortunately, the road is relatively flat, and it is not easy to fall even if you run with your eyes closed.

Draco thought thankfully when he stepped on something.

His feet slipped and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Facing the moonlight, Draco saw with horror that he seemed to have stepped on something that was twisting and crawling on the ground.

"What... um—"

Before Draco could say anything, a cold hand covered his mouth tightly.

……

There seemed to be some strange noises behind her, and Amanta looked back while running.

The path was quiet and there was no one behind her.

Strange, hasn't Draco been following her all the time?

Did he run into the castle with Harry?

No, Harry asked Draco to watch her before he left. Given Draco's personality, he would not ignore her and run away by himself.

What about the Draco people?
